Makes FF5 look quite the bargain.
Proving once again that P T Barnum was right.

Darn, I thought it had a Chevy in it.
That's almost as much as I'm asking for my Mom's house.

Sorry, that car is a bit over the top but I'm sure there will be buyers willing to pay the price.
How many toys could you have for the price of that car would be many?
LOL. Well if they can get it all the power to them. Funny how they had to add the "990", probably will also add an admin fee for the paperwork....
Steve
Wow
"golden ticket" $80k?? Love the mustangs but this is ridiculous. Show pony that looks straight out of a fast and furious movie.
I mean, more power to them if they find someone to pay that. But for that price, you’re passing on some pretty exotic rides to buy a mustang.
I see where it says "NOT THE MANUF.SUGGESTED RETAIL PRICE" The MSRP it says is $80k less. Still a lot of money.

Not an uncommon practice for low-volume "collectable" cars. Back in the day when the Corvette ZR1 came out, it was the same way. I think Chevrolet provided only one or two to each qualified dealership and they were getting ridiculous money for them.
Hahahaha! Yeah.... no.
Not even if I won the PowerBall and had 100 million in the bank. But I would have Jeff K repaint my car that color, maybe.
10 years ago people were only dumb enough to pay a $20K dealer gouge for a Shelby. Is it actually possible for people to have a negative IQ?
It's a souped up $27k car. Yes it has awesome performance. But when you sit in one, they scream $27k.
It says "California Tag - Protecting the consumer". I guess price gouging isn't part of the protection. Maybe they provide the grease.
Had a 69 Mustang hot wheel when I was a kid like that called the Boss Hoss. It was a limited addition too but far less expensive.
Think they will charge extra for some floor matts? When I bought my last Shelby 500 they wanted another $110 for mats.
I got up and walked out on a dealer for the paint/fabric/undercoating protection BS. They pulled that crap after we agreed on a price for a car sitting on their lot. They said it was "already on the car" and couldn't deduct it. (Bye bye)Quote:

Consider the cost of a Revology or Classic Recreations Mustang.
Classic Recreations - $185K and up
Revology - $200K and up
This is why I am building my 70 Boss 302 tribute restomod!
I'd pay 30K for that car. But I'd rather build an 818C with my son! :)
Under dealer added equipment., what exactly is Golden ticket? What are you getting for $80,000?
Mike
Now that is funny....”a sucker born every minute.”
That's only $185,910 more then I paid for my donor.

My advice: Spend about half the money and buy a BMW M5 Competition! Then spend the rest of the money beating the pants off of most other production cars at the track.
Can you check back w/ them in a couple months to see if they sold it please?
Great googly moogly!!
I guess it's worth what people are willing to pay for it. I don't see it frankly, and for what you else you can get for that money, it should sit unsold...
I hope you can follow up and let us know if it sells. You are right -- obscene!!
Regards,
Steve
Sadly - I'm sure they will!Quote:

You could buy a C8 Corvette for that markup :)

Dont forget they want it around for eye candy for the show room. It needs to be there long enough for people to tell others to bring them in to see it! You might say the 80K is advertizing they would loose if it sold quickly!?
I still have my Hot Wheels Boss Hoss Mustang ... still in the little foam "envelope" that it came with.
I think Just Puttering is right. I'm sure that $80K mark-up is designed, at least in part, to ensure that it sits on the floor for a while before they eventually accept a lower offer on it. I can't fathom who would pay $185K for a new Mustang, regardless of how rare it is (not talking about rare classic cars, of course). For that money you could buy an Aston Martin Vantage:

Don't get me wrong, I've been a Mustang lover since I was a kid. The first new car I bought when I graduated from college was a '92 LX 5.0. (225 HP seemed massive back then ;)) but if I had $185K burning a hole in my pocket I'd take the Aston Martin any day of the week.
It is CA, and there is probably someone who will, just because they can! You do get more looks in the roadster than anyone in a Mustang!
I imagine some fellow wearing white loafers, and a light blue polyester leisure suit, sidling up and saying, "You can drive it home today"
Can anyone remember when almost anyone could afford a Mustang. I think they looked better too! Former owner of a 1965 Fastback.
They'll probably get in a bidding war and push it up another $50k.Quote:

Just about anyone can afford a new Mustang. They start in the $26K range. Which is what makes a car that is a souped up version going for over $100k more than outgagous.Quote:
